Abstract

This report assesses the current trends, drivers, obstacles, mechanisms, impacts, costs and benefits of stakeholder engagement in the water sector. It builds on empirical data collected through an extensive survey across 215 stakeholders, within and outside the water sector, and 69 case studies collected worldwide. It highlights the increasing importance of stakeholder engagement in the water sector as a principle of good governance and the need for better understanding of the pressing and emerging issues related to stakeholder engagement. These include: the shift of power across stakeholders; the arrival of new entrants that ought to be considered; the external and internal drivers that have triggered engagement processes; innovative tools that have emerged to manage the interface between multiple players, and types of costs and benefits incurred by engagement at policy and project levels. This report provides pragmatic policy guidance to decision makers and practitioners in the form of key principles and a Checklist for Public Action with indicators, international references and self-assessment questions, which together can help policy makers to set up the appropriate framework conditions needed to yield the short and long-term benefits of stakeholder engagement.

Abstract

This book covers well testing methods included the latest developments in the field. It explains classic topics in depth, in depth such as layered reservoirs, naturally fractured reservoirs, and wellbore effects, and also newer developments, such as well testing for horizontal wells. This book is perfect reference for junior and senior reservoir, production, and geology engineers, who want to improve their knowledge of well test analysis and current best practices. The book is a valuable addition to any reservoir and production engineer's library.

Abstract

The updated textbook is intended to serve as an advanced and detailed treatment of the evolution of the subject of stratigraphy from its disparate beginnings as separate studies of sedimentology, lithostratigraphy, chronostratigraphy, etc., into a modern integrated discipline in which all components are necessary. There is a historical introduction, which now includes information about the timeline of the evolution of the components of modern stratigraphy. The elements of the various components (facies analysis, sequence stratigraphy, mapping methods, chronostratigraphic methods, etc.) are outlined, and a chapter discussing the modern synthesis is included near the end of the book, which closes with a discussion of future research trends in the study of time as preserved in the stratigraphic record.

Abstract

This book introduces the basic theoretical knowledge of rock mechanics and its application in petroleum engineering. It covers the gamut of the formulas and calculations for petroleum engineers that have been compiled over decades, while others are meant to help guide the engineer through some of the more recent breakthroughs in the industry’s technology. The topics are introduced at a level that should give a good basic understanding of the subject: • Basic concepts of stress and strain • Experimental method of rock mechanics • Rock deformation and strength characteristics • Rock strength failure criterion • In situ stress state • Application method of rock mechanics theory in the field of wellbore stability • Application method of rock mechanics theory in the field of sand production • Application method of rock mechanics theory in the field of hydraulic fracturing. This textbook contains abundant figures, illustrations, and tables, providing valuable examples and exercises. Key Features and Benefits for the Reader: • Helps in understanding the basic concepts of rock mechanics • Applies rock mechanics theory and method to various fields of petroleum engineering • Includes a large number of calculations, tables, and equations that are very useful for petroleum engineers • Presents new and updated sections in rock mechanics of petroleum engineering. .
